Chapter 230 – Breakthrough (3)
230
He is a player who is known for his good looks.
He is regarded as the most handsome man in the soccer world, and beyond that, he is always in the top 3 in the most attractive man polls on the Internet.
When that kind of person puts on makeup and puts on clothes for the broadcast, it seemed like a halo was shining from behind.
“Hey~ I’ve been told a lot that I’m handsome, but… That’s great. It’s really great. It’s amazing.”
His presence is so overwhelming that even the cinematographer, who has often seen handsome and beautiful women called Nanda Ginda, muttered to himself without realizing it.
A slender height close to 183cm and a body built through exercise.
And the perfect face that seems to change even the taste.
Here-
“Nice to meet you. This is Hong Min-jun.”
Even the charming husky voice.
Silence fell on the filming set as Tina Lott, who was supposed to be hosting the show, stared blankly at Hong Min-joon in a daze.
“Is this Miss Tina Lott? I wish you well today.”
In the atmosphere of the filming set where the strange silence fell, if it were not for Hong Min-joon’s greetings, he would have had to start filming again from the scene he appears in.
“Ah… Yeah… Uh… “
PD’s relief was short-lived, and Tina Roth’s face turned red as she shyly held Hong Min-joon’s outstretched hand.
A girl fan who met an idol she admired as she couldn’t even hold his hand properly and just clenched his fingertips lightly and trembled.
The incident, which would have caused a stir if it had been a live broadcast, agonized over whether the PD had to start filming again, but fortunately, Hong Min-joon handled it leisurely this time as well.
“I heard you are a Newcastle fan. Aren’t you disappointed because it’s not the captain or Jose?”
“Oh no! Never! Not at all!!”
“Then I’m glad. If I introduce myself once again, I am Hong Min-joon, a soccer player playing for Newcastle.”
“Yes, four! Tina, Tina… As… “
In spite of the timid introduction that he couldn’t hear behind his back, Hong Min-joon smiled as if he were drawing and shook his hand.
* * *
Shooting resumed after a short break.
Only then did Tina Lott, who came to her senses, ask in her signature calm tone.
“Minjun Hong is—”
“Please call me Minjun. For Koreans, the first is the surname and the second is the given name.”
“Is that okay!?”
“Sure.”
“Then that… Mi, Minjun player… You made your name known through the Olympics. Then can you tell us what it was like before that?”
The script was coordinated and prepared as soon as possible, but the rehearsal was not possible due to lack of time.
Still, PD wasn’t worried.
The script was not difficult, and Tina Lott was surprisingly a gifted presenter.
‘Should I be worried….’
Tina Lott was still looking at Hong Min-jun with a red face, as if she knew the PD who regretted it belatedly.
“The first time I encountered soccer was in elementary school… Was it in 4th grade? I didn’t have a good home environment. Oh, that’s not to say there wasn’t a problem. It was a harmonious family. However, it was a difficult situation economically.”
With a clear voice and high-class vocabulary, Hong Min-joon’s English was as natural and formal as that of the British upper class.
“The reason was simple. I also wanted to look cool to my childhood friend who was my first love… Also, the soccer club tricked me into giving me bread and milk if I joined.”
Hong Min-joon calmly portrayed his poor childhood, which did not match his natural aristocratic atmosphere.
“I wonder if he still has talent, but he even became a national youth representative in middle school. But it was there. Because he only believed in talent and was arrogant. When I was in high school, I lost my starting position, let alone the national team, and stayed on the bench.”
“Are you Hong Min-Jun Sun, or Min-Jun?”
“I was a complete backup member. To the extent that you expect to play after the 75th minute in the second half? And then I realized. How important effort is. I realized it belatedly.”
It was a story that was told with a calm expression, but Tina Lott was concentrating without even breathing.
The PD took a deep breath and clicked his tongue.
‘I’m very lost, I’m lost. After all— hmm?’
And I realized it belatedly.
‘Why are you out of breath… I was immersed to this extent?’
It wasn’t just Tina Lott that she was focusing on.
The audience as well as the filming team were all focused on Hong Min-joon’s story.
‘This crazy! What kind of immersion… ?’
It’s surprising and absurd, but the PD thought of what he was going to do like a professional.
When I tapped the cinematographer on the shoulder, he looked back in amazement, and it seemed that he was also immersed in the story.
Then, it wakes up the staff who were immersed in the story of tuk-tuk.
They may not know the audience, but they cannot be the listeners of the story either. It is the duty of the staff to make the filming more immersive for the viewers who will watch this broadcast.
When the PD gave some instructions and listened to the story again, the story had come to the present point without realizing it.
“Well… It may be a sensitive question, but will it be okay?”
“Of course.”
Hong Min-jun smiles lightly at the hesitant Tina Lott.
The PD licked his lips at the exclamations of women bursting out everywhere.
‘A talent that can immerse people like this. With that face and this talent, it would be perfect for an actor. Too bad.’
Tina Lott asked quickly, her head bowed.
“These days, there is a lot of buzz about Min-Jun’s scandal. You have officially revealed that you have a girlfriend, but there are so many women who connect with Minjun. Do you have any clarification or position on this?”
Finally… !
PD’s hands were wet with tension.
The moment when Hong Min-joon, who had been away from broadcasting, decided to appear on a broadcast out of the blue.
The reason why the broadcasting station readily accepted Hong Min-joon’s appearance despite the unreasonable schedule.
Isn’t it all because of Hong Min-joon’s buzz and attention to the scandal?
Even thoughheheard the stance Hong Min-joon would take while tuning, PD swallowed his saliva in tension.
“Are you talking about flirting or being promiscuous?”
The neat smile turns mischievous, and Tina Lott, who saw the smile from the front, blushes again and looks away.
“Right. You cannot deny that.”
“That, like that… !”
Even though she already knew Minjun Hong’s answer through her script, Tina Lott, who was deeply engrossed, put on a devastated expression like someone who had heard that the world was about to end.
Hong Min-joon blinks his eyes at the realistic acting that cannot be thought of as having guessed in advance.
“I don’t think this is something to be ashamed of or to hide. It’s not a crime, it’s because you’re proud of yourself.”
“Yeah!?”
“I get permission from my girlfriends to meet girls.”
Hong Min-jun laughed awkwardly at the reaction of jumping out of the chair in surprise.
“Hey, girlfriends!? That, bar, pronunciation mistake—”
“No. That’s right, because it’s not just one person. My girlfriends approve of each other, and they allow me to meet other girls as long as they get their permission.”
“No, that… That is… “
Looking at Tina Lott, who couldn’t bear to speak, Hong Min-jun nodded her head.
“Of course I know it can be bad. The love of two people, a man and a woman, is natural and familiar. But love like mine is already common around us. Sex without love, free dating, and even legally bound couples declare open marriage.”
Would the daughter’s expression look like this when she witnessed her father cheating on her?
Even Hong Min-joon, who casually criticized Gura on the air, could not meet Tina Lott’s gaze and secretly avoided his eyes.
Even so, the flabby mouth didn’t stop.
“I agree with the opinion that I am promiscuous. I’m not going to change my mind though. If we both agree, if it’s not a crime, I want you to think of it as a different form of love. At least I won’t meet another woman without my ex-girlfriend’s knowledge or cheating on her.”
PD’s cry is heard through Tina Lott’s in-ear.
Tina Lott, who had her mouth open, finally came to her senses… No, half lost, he recited the script mechanically.
“Ah yes. Okay. I hear you. If that’s the case, I can’t stop listening to Hong Min-joon’s songs again.”
* * *
Viewers watching the broadcast were astonished at this sudden progress.
“Singing in the midst of this!?”
“Are you crazy?”
No matter how the viewers react, the broadcast just plays the recording.
And the following Hong Min-joon’s song shocked viewers once again.
“What! Why are you so good?”
“What, what is it? Is this really live? Is it really good?”
“What song is it? A Korean song.”
“Wow… Crazy It’s really cool.”
* * *
After the broadcast, the reaction was explosive.
『Hong Min-jun officially declares octopus feet!!』
『Why don’t you meet girlfriends in a world where you can have an open marriage?』
“Sex mania? A spirited rebel?』
『Focus on Hong Min-joon’s interest in the song he sang on the air』
『’Snow Flower’, ‘Memories Resemble Love’, ‘Love, That Terrible Illness’, Hong Min-joon passionately sang ‘In my time’ by Tina Lott! Is your skill at the level of a top-notch singer?』
